This third volume of Naturally Hypernatural explores contemporary
concepts of landscape in the humanities and the arts in relation to
the notion that our age is defined by a 'geology of the human' and
that this reckoning constitutes a new epoch, aptly named the
anthropocene. The thesis of this volume - that there is no
homogeneous concept of landscape, just as there is no uniform
definition of nature or culture - was developed concurrently at a
conference at the University of Graz and at a series of exhibitions
centered on film, painting and photography at the Kunsthaus Graz.
This thesis has been fortified by registering the simultaneity of
land art, the ecological movement and the view of the earth from
space. Art since the modern period reveals how divergent ideas of
landscape are intertwined with differently chanted conceptions of
subjectivity, perception and space.
